Boris Johnson (@BorisJohnson) Thank you to my friends and colleagues in the Conservative & Unionist Party for your support. The more you are clear about your policy, the stronger your mandate when you start as prime minister. “The Conservative party has a hard-won reputation for fiscal and economic competence that has been the bedrock of our electoral success over generations. The new prime minister will then have just three months to prepare for Brexit by the Halloween deadline set by EU27 leaders. Conservative party HQ announced on Friday that they would be allowed to spend a total of £150,000 over the course of the campaign, starting on 7 June.
